HUSQVARNA TC 250 (2008-2009) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2008, the Swedish motorcycle maker released the Husqvarna TTC 250, an off-road motorcycle that debuted in 2002. It was arguably one of the lightest and most agile machines in its class and was sold at an MSRP of $6,300.

Husqvarna was a Swedish manufacturer of outdoor power products, such as lawnmowers, chainsaws, trimmers, brush cutters, cultivators, garden tractors, and, why not, motorcycles. The company was founded in 1689 as a firearm manufacturer and was one of the oldest continuously running companies in the world.

The 2008 machine was visually similar to previous models, featuring the same characteristics with a different color scheme. It had standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a single seat, a single exhaust system with a muffler mounted high on the right-hand side, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires.

The 2008 Husqvarna TC 250 had installed a 249cc four-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, which packed a fuel injection system instead of the previously Keihin carburetor.

For suspension, the motorcycle packed an adjustable Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front with 300 mm of travel and a Sachs shock absorber on the rear with 296 mm of travel, offering excellent suspension performance and handling capabilities.

In the braking department, the motorcycle wheels were fitted with a 260 mm brake disc on the front and a 240 mm rotor on the rear. Both discs were clamped by Brembo hydraulic calipers.
